Homecoming A lasting tradition Instead of bringing its typical scares, Halloween was a day tilled with excitement and anticipation. On October 31, Homecoming 1986 was held. The day began with a school spirit assembly held on the football field. Student Council officers introduced the fall sports teams and the Homecoming queen candidates. The Homecoming Court consisted of Danielle Conselyea, Christine Larsen, Susan Palovchak, Jennifer Simon, and Katy Wen. The Pep Rally continued as the class competition began. The junior class reigned supreme in the tug of war. The stunned senior class was em- barassed after being defeated by the fledglingfreshman. However, the dis- appointed seniors regained some of their pride after coming out on top in the cheering competition. The excitement continued into the evening. The junior class was elated at their victory in the annual float competition. At halftime, Katy Wen, Student Council Vice President, was crowned Homecoming Queen. To put the finishing touch on a glorious evening, the Sayreville Bombers back from behind to win the game against Perth Amboy. As tears of joy collect in her eyes, Katy Wen reflects on her new royalty. Proud juniors display their first place float that commemorated Columbus Day. Homecoming Queen Candidates: Danielle Conselyea, Christine Larsen, Susan Palovchak, Jennifer Simon, and Katy Wen. Student Life 19
